good idea :)

i definitely think you should go. the plane rides will be fine concentrated time where you have to study... and then when you are there you can get a real break from everything here.

i think if you've already dropped hints, then you should just go. the most your mom will do will be to tell you that she thought it was a bad idea.. but it'll be over.. and she'll hear how happy you are when you get back and see that it was a good idea.

your plan of figuring out monday sounds great :)

jules and i just took a work break... to express. :) it was awesome..
